The Board of Advisors of the Peter F. Drucker Archives at Claremont Graduate University seeks to entertain proposals that will result in a commission for the development of one or more courses that, in design and content, perpetuate the thinking and teaching of Peter Drucker.
These courses will be the foundation of a program of development of a library of concepts related to Drucker�s idea as well as a content library of learning-focused materials designed to communicate the concepts.
The proposed course(s) shall:
- draw on materials in the Drucker Archives and other resources.
- provide content for at least 24 contact hours.
- target one of the following audiences; graduate management students, mid-level executives, leaders in non-profit organizations.
- have clearly defined outcome and measurement components.
- be adaptable to other audiences.
The Board welcomes letters of interest, accompanied by current vitae of the proposal author(s), by January 12, 1999.
On the basis of the letters of interest, The Board will grant several grants of $5,000-$10,000 for the development of commission proposal packages for its consideration.
Commission proposals should include the following:
- 15-20 page paper summarizing the underlying elements of the proposed course,
- Preliminary syllabus outline, including media integration
- Proposed budget and timeline
The Board will select one or more proposals for development into a full course to be packaged and promoted by the Drucker Archives.
Papers written as part of the commission proposal process will be considered for inclusion in a compilation to be delivered and published in conjunction with the celebration of Professor Drucker�s 90th birthday in November 1999. The completed course package will be required at the same time.
Those receiving commissions to develop course materials will be granted full access to the Drucker Archives, including stipends for travel. The Drucker Archives will also provide other types of support necessary to complete a project of this nature.
Materials submitted as part of the commission proposal packages will become the property of the Drucker Archives.
